Where to buy Oranda?

[Zacquir]

Hi all.
I went for the aquarama recently and fell in love with the Orandas. I've kept some non comp grade ranchus a many years back. Now planning to start on orandas.

Where can I get a decent piece. And whats the damage like for a good decent piece?

Im still quite new on finnage and build. How do i tell a good piece?

If I may add - when you visit any LFS, pay attention to how they maintain the fish. If they are diligent in keeping every aspect clean, chances are you'll get a healthy fish you could enjoy for months and years. Conversely, if you pick up a sick or problematic fish, you'll spend a lot of time to address the issues. I hope this makes sense.

I just bought a small red capped oranda yesterday. Just want to try grooming..

Are there any steps to take when aquiring a new fish? E.g. Salt treatment or such.

And i do notice that the tip of the caudal fin seems a bit bent inwards. As it grow, will it be able to recover from the bent?

Here are some photos of it.

My very first oranda.
